1. TRADING FOR FERRITE AND BIOPTICS:
Because of the current difficulties in acquiring large amounts of ferrite and bioptics in the free market, many pilots have been forced to sharpen their minds in search of alternative sources.
Soon, some clever dealers warned a gap in the offerings of gunsmiths and their sales in bulk:
The normal purchase of a weapon requires paying both crystal or Niodes (in the case of elite equipment), as well as a quantity of ferrite and bioptics.
Nevertheless:
There are offers selling packs or bulks.
Buying by bulk, the following two important benefits are obtained:
- A package of five (5) weapons is received for the price of four (4) weapons (getting a weapon for free).
- Buying by bulk, only is paid the crystal or Niode part, so the buyer saves the payment of ferrite and bioptics.
This means that the buyer can sell back what he bought, and since the black market will pay a third of its marked value in the official market, those who bought purchasing bulks will receive some crystal or Niodes back, along with a certain amount of ferrite and additional bioptics as free profit.
ENVELOPER
Trading Envelopers:
A study of all available weapons in the market shows that the following two crystal weapons offer the highest benefit of ferrite and bioptics after their purchase and sale:
FURY LASER
Unitary Standard Cost:
(Pilot level 11 is required to purchase)
- Crystal: 2
- Ferrite: 165
- Bioptics: 132
Bulk Cost per 5 units (cost per single unit)
- Crystal: 8 (1.6)
- Ferrite: 0 (0)
- Bioptics: 0 (0)
Every unit sells at:
- Crystal: 1
- Ferrite: 55
- Bioptics: 44
Profit Rate per 1 crystal:
- Crystal: 0.625 (a 62% of the crystal invested will be recovered)
- Ferrite: 34.375
- Bioptics: 27.5
Unitary Standard Cost:
(Pilot level 41 is required to purchase)
(Pilot level 41 is required to purchase)
- Crystal: 21
- Ferrite: 1750
- Bioptics: 1350
Bulk Cost per 5 units (cost per single unit)
- Crystal: 84 (16.8)
- Ferrite: 0 (0)
- Bioptics: 0 (0)
Every unit sells at:
- Crystal: 7
- Ferrite: 583
- Bioptics: 450
Profit Rate per 1 crystal:
- Crystal: 0.416 (a 42% of the crystal invested will be recovered)
- Ferrite: 34.70
- Bioptics: 26.78
Trading Fury Lasers:
Pros: Best benefit as expends less crystal in the process.
Cons: Requires 10 more times than trading envelopers to acquire the same amount of Ferrite and /or bioptics.Trading Envelopers:
Pros: Require less transactions to stockpile a high amount of Ferrite and Bioptics.
Cons: Less profitable crystal wise than trading Fury Lasers, as has a lower return of crystal.
2. STANDARD SOURCES OF FERRITE AND BIOPTICS:
1. Missions
During the fulfillment of missions, it is common to obtain a certain amount of ferrite and bioptics on salvages.
2. Battles
After a fight against another pilot, a number of resources will be won, which will be higher in case of victory.
3. Disassembling Mechs and armaments
As with the sale of weapons, it is possible to obtain a certain amount of resources back. It is common to disassemble those Mechs, weapons and equipment that are not used or expected to be used in the future.
4. Joining the Honour Guard
Whenever you join the honour guard of another pilot, you will receive a certain amount of ferrite or bioptics as reward.
